Genghis Khan - Backdrop

Overview

Years have passed. Headed by Temujin, the Kiyat Clan has grown steadily strong and prosperous. Peili, usurped by his brother of the throne, is thrown out of his clan. He seeks the help of Temujin, who promises to help him get back his throne. The Tartars have grown weak. Temujin plans an attack against them to avenge for his father. He seeks the ally of Peili, who readily agrees in the hope to grab a share of the Tartars’ treasures. Temujin launches a two-side attack on the Tartars, only to find that they have already been exterminated by army from the Golden Empire. Temujin kills the Chieftain Selkujin to avenge his father's death. Temujin offers the head of Seikujin to Wanyen, the minister of the Golden Empire. Wanyen arrogantly decrees an official title to Temujin, and has the Mongols subordinate to the Golden Empire. It is great humiliation to Temujin, who is determined to subordinate to none.
